Tom Lane	dbd35a972f	Throw a useful error message if an extension script file is fed to psql. We have seen one too many reports of people trying to use 9.1 extension files in the old-fashioned way of sourcing them in psql. Not only does that usually not work (due to failure to substitute for MODULE_PATHNAME and/or @extschema@), but if it did work they'd get a collection of loose objects not an extension. To prevent this, insert an \echo ... \quit line that prints a suitable error message into each extension script file, and teach commands/extension.c to ignore lines starting with \echo. That should not only prevent any adverse consequences of loading a script file the wrong way, but make it crystal clear to users that they need to do it differently now. Tom Lane, following an idea of Andrew Dunstan's. Back-patch into 9.1 ... there is not going to be much value in this if we wait till 9.2.	14 years ago
Tom Lane	8436489c81	Add KNNGIST support to contrib/btree_gist. This extends GiST's support for nearest-neighbor searches to many of the standard data types. Teodor Sigaev	15 years ago
Tom Lane	ec65a79db2	Fix upgrade of contrib/btree_gist from 9.0. The initial version of the update-from-unpackaged script neglected to include the <> operators that were added to the opclasses during 9.1. To make this script produce the same final state as the regular install script, use the same ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY trick as in pg_trgm.	15 years ago
Tom Lane	629b3af27d	Convert contrib modules to use the extension facility. This isn't fully tested as yet, in particular I'm not sure that the "foo--unpackaged--1.0.sql" scripts are OK. But it's time to get some buildfarm cycles on it. sepgsql is not converted to an extension, mainly because it seems to require a very nonstandard installation process.
